The Artek Domus Chair is a mid-century modern masterpiece designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara in 1946. Originally commissioned for Helsinki’s Domus Academica student housing and known as "The Finn Chair," it is celebrated for its balance of ergonomic support and compact design. The chair features signature short armrests that allow it to be tucked neatly under tables, making it ideal for dining rooms, home offices, or workspaces. This version is finished in a Walnut stain and is constructed with a form-pressed birch veneer core and a solid birch or oak frame. Its stackable design allows up to four chairs to be nested, and it includes felt glides to protect flooring surfaces.
